Of course. But it's often worth it to take a class that grants proficiency with all martial weapons anyway for a variety of reasons depending on build. I typically discount the requirement for martial weapon proficiency, simply because any character I'd build that'd take IWF would already have proficiency with all martial weapons.
By the way, where's a Courtblade from?
As Testament said. It's effectively a greatsword with 18-20/x2 threat range, and does slashing and piercing. It also counts as a greatsword for purposes of Weapon Focus, Specialization, and Improved Critical feats; i.e., if you have those feats for greatsword, they'll work with the Courtblade.
The Thinblade and Lightblade both use any WF, WS, and IC feats you have with rapier, BTW.
